A farmer who is ahead of his time. An environmental prophet who practices what he preaches: environmentally sound, sustainable before it became a buzzword. The film is both a natural portrayal as it is is a subtle and far-sighted man's spiritual legacy to future generations.

The film is an astonishing nature documentary with an important message about preserving both our cultural and natural heritage for coming generations.

Styrbjörn Ejneby and his wife Solveig struggle for preserving the old landscape with all its traditions and invaluable natural resources. Sentenced to death by his cancer, Styrbjörn Ejneby leaves no one untouched by his wisdom and his straight forward approach in the camera when he continues his own mission into the bitter end.

The result can be viewed in this film, the book The Farmers Book and the photo exhibition Life and Death of a Farmer.
